FELLY-BoRNG MACHINE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 227,572, dated May 11, 1880.

Application filed February 24, 1880.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, JOHN G. PEACE, of Salem, in the county of Dent and State of Missouri, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Machines for Boring Fellies, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification.

My present invention is in some of its features an improvement on Patent' No. 173,052, for spoke-tenoing machines, patented to me, and dated February 1, 1876.

The present improvement consists, chiefly, in a felly-holder with its described adjustable connection with the supporting bar or piece.

In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improvement. Fig. 2 is a side View of same.

A is the supporting bar or piece.4 This has upon its under side a rib, a, fitted to be held in avise, which thus gives firm support to the machine.

B B' are stationary bearings, in which the spindle O has rotary and endwise motion. The spindle has at one end a hand-crank, D, and at the other an anger-socket, E, fitted to .receive an anger of any desired size. The spindle has an enlargement or collar, c, against whichbears one end of a spiral spring, F, surrounding the spindle, and whose other end rests against the bearing B. This spring acts to give the auger its feed as it is turned by the hand-crank D. The forward novement of the auger is limited by a collar, Gr, witl a set-screw, g, bearing in a groove, c', of the spindle.

The felly-holder H has a base, h, resting upon the points of two supporting-screws, I, which may be screwed upward or downward to adjust the height ofthe holder to the anger, and also to adjust the inclination of the fellyholder to the auger. The holder H has two posts, h' h', against which the back of the felly rests, and two standards, kz 702, by means of which the holder is clamped to the bar A.,

The clamping device is very similar to that described in the specification of my patent aforesaid. It has a bail, J, whose sides fit the outer sides of the standards b2, and a crossbar, j, which rests in notches ILS, made at the tops of the standards, the tops of the stand'- ards being preferably inclined, as shown, to accommodate the bail in the various heights of the holder from the bar. 5 5

The clamp is tightened to hold the holder firmly upon the tops of screws I by an eccentrio cam, K, pivoted to the ends of the bail and turned by a lever, L. The eccentrc bears against the under sideof the bar A.

The supporting-screws I are held to their adjustment by set-screws fi, which preferably bear against `flattened places upon the sides of the screws I.

I claim as my invention- 1. The combination of auger-spindle-sup. portinlg bar A, felly-holder H, having base h, j posts h' IL', and standards h2 hz, notched at hs,

'and clanping device, consisting of bail J,

cam K, and lever L, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.

2.4 The combination, with a supporting-bar, of a felly-holder, H, clamping device J K L, supporting-screws I I, and set-screws i i, as and for the purpose set forth.
